«Für den Faschismus bleibt durchgängig konstitutiv, was für jede Form kapitalistisch organisierter Reproduktion der Gesamtgesellschaft gilt: daß die Erfordernisse der Kapitalverwertung sich durchsetzen. Am Unvermögen, der Kapitalverwertung einen alternativen Weg zu bahnen, scheiterten denn auch die bürgerlich parlamentarische Politik der Weimarer Endphase wie alle Versuche einer bürgerlichen Opposition gegen den Faschismus.» Johannes Agnoli In dieser Textsammlung setzt sich Agnoli mit dem deutschen und italienischen Faschismus auseinander. Er wendet sich hierbei vor allem gegen eine Geschichtsrevision, in deren Verlauf die Geschichte so revidiert und umgedeutet wird, «daß sie von allen Erscheinungen und von allen Missetaten gereinigt wird, die das Bild einer Hochkultur beflecken». So beschäftigt er sich etwa mit der These von Ernst Nolte bzw. Jürgen Habermas von einem Linksfaschismus (der Studentenbewegung oder des Sozialismus allgemein).
